Implant Protocol
Traditional implant repair methods often involve invasive techniques, lengthy healing periods, and discomfort for patients. Eliminate these challenges by harnessing the precision and gentle nature of Waterlase.
Waterlase’s YSGG wavelength can precisely target infected tissue, promoting healthy bone growth and optimizing implant stability. Waterlase enhances the long-term success of implant restorations.
Waterlase allows you to save ailing and failing implants that previously may have been a lost cause. Learn more about the improved outcomes, reduced patient discomfort, and accelerated healing times of Waterlase!

Background: This investigation was designed to evaluate the reestablishment of bone-to-implant contact on infected dental surfaces following decontamination with Er,Cr:YSGG laser and reconstructive therapy.
- Waterlase was able to effectively debride the implant surface without damaging or significantly increasing temperature of titanium implant
- Histologic evidence of new bone formation, suggesting a positive role of Er,Cr: YSGG laser in debridement of titanium implant surface to facilitate subsequent regenerative treatment.
- Reentry at 6 mo. revealed excellent healing, with a remarkable bone gain covering the previously exposed implant surface, observed radiographically and clinically.

Successful Innovative Strategies to Manage Peri-implantitis with the Er,Cr:YSGG Laser
The Er,Cr:YSGG all-tissue laser is effective in managing the diseased implant environment ranging from decontamination of the implant surface to decortication.
Through case reports, our esteemed panel speakers will add their respective “pearls of wisdom” to laser surgical intervention with adjunctive steps using osseous grafting, biologics, restorative management, and occlusion dynamics resulting in the resurrection of the dental implant.
